    I’ll give him one thing, he seems to have learned from his time here and doesn’t panic so much when his team goes 2 up. Back then he would almost always make a defensive sub, now he is a bit more confident in his team. Glad he`s doing well, the dude was all class and genuinely worked hard, it just didn’t work for him here.

      It’s probably because teams operate differently against him at Villa.

      At Arsenal he thought he could get away with defending as we had all the posession, at Villa almost everyone attacks him so his defensive solidity is built in from the start and they play for the counter, whih to be fair they’re superb at this season.
